Nosferatu labridens, the curve-bar cichlid, is a species of cichlid freshwater fish endemic to the Laguna Media Luna and headwaters of the Río Verde between 1,000–1,100 m (3,300–3,600 ft) above sea level in the state of San Luis Potosí, Mexico. Its range is a part of the upper Panuco River basin.[2] It shares its distribution with the related Nosferatu bartoni.[2] Nosferatu labridens can reach a maximum total length of 25 cm (10 in).[3] It is endangered due to habitat loss, pollution and introduced species.[1]
